Getafe vs SD Eibar 25/08/18
25 August 2018
The two sides that have entered the new La Liga campaign with negative results will face off against each other at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez, where Getafe are looking to host SD Eibar. The Deep Blues have suffered a 2-0 defeat to Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, failing to endanger Los Blancos’ goal for the whole 90 minutes, while picking up seven yellow cards in the process, but José Bordalás urges his team to put more effort and achieve the first victory in the new season in front of the home crowd. Before losing to the Madrid giants, El Geta played out four successive draws, failing to find the back of the net three times in the process. On the other hand, the Gunsmiths’ disastrous form culminated against Huesca last week, as Eibar lost 2-1 to the new La Liga side at home, which was their third defeat in the previous five matches. José Luis Mendilibar’s chief concern relates to bad displays of his defenders, as his team conceded at least one goal in the last eight games, which may represent a massive problem this season.
Markel Bergara, who has suffered an arm injury, will be absent in the home team, while Pedro León and Marc Cardona should both skip the encounter for the visitors due to some physical problems.
